Got 2x 512MB in dual-channel because it runs faster this way (supposedly).
Ah yes, I have an old 40 gig drive and it's 3/4 full with music and a few videos. The majority of my heavyweight files (movies, tv, etc.) are on a second IDE drive that's 200GB. This drive runs at 7200RPM, though, which I figure helps.
Shouldn't more RAM reduce the need for a bigger HDD, though? Then again I'm thinking SATA drive + RAM = no more stickies. And my 40 gig has been making some funny noises lately that do not help the situation. Occasionally, those "stickies" come with a CLANK! from the hard drive, then it moves freely again. So basically, I need to get a new drive soon, anyway. Thanks for the tips.
